so you could try same play looking for contents of

comint-dynamic-complete-functions

I obtain (in both cases):

comint-dynamic-complete-functions is a variable defined in `comint.el'.
Its value is
(comint-c-a-p-replace-by-expanded-history shell-environment-variable-completion 
shell-command-completion shell-c-a-p-replace-by-expanded-directory 
pcomplete-completions-at-point shell-filename-completion 
comint-filename-completion)

Local in buffer *shell*; global value is
(comint-c-a-p-replace-by-expanded-history comint-filename-completion)

IIUC completion stops when first function in list succeeds

you could put functions one by one into edebug, thus being noticed which one was active and how it went
